6" Fabtech with..

I have a 6" Fabtech on my F150 right now.. Looking to go up a little more.

I want to throw an AAL on the rear...

If i go with a 1 1/2" AAL from AS should i go with a 2" or 2 1/2" front AS Spacer to keep the look where it's at now.

I don't want the front and rear to be different heights...

Looking to purchase ASAP.. Any suggestions guys?

Thanks

if you do a 1 1/2" AAl now, 2" in the front will have you sitting nose high and ass low. do a 2" AAL if you want to keep the front and rear level. the AAL will sit higher than 1 1/2" for a week or so after install until it sets in.

Alright so run a 2" Front AS Spacer and a 2" Rear AAL to keep it level...

Thanks! Now i just gotta find the parts.. Was going to get the spacers from SprngBender and ideas for the AAL

Thank you 06yz250f

im running bds aal. there only about an inch or inch and a half total tho. but just a warning if you do sit a hair high in the front which is a possibility you can use shims on the rear. someone else will have to tell you more about that.

for front most people run autospring spacers. i think sky jacker has some as well and they also have aal i believe. just look around for the best price available and for a well known manufacturer. what size tires are you planning on running?
